Its either people's selfish ways or God's selfish ways. And he almost certainly doesn't exist so
Another fascination; the staggering hypocrisy of believers who accuse others of being 'selfish' (mainly self interested),as if they are not. Plus the arrogance of inferring that self interest is morally wrong.
Human beings are innately self interested.If we were not we would not survive as a species.
Morality is based on pragmatism and self interest,not some transcendent moral authority.That is why there are no absolute moral imperatives.
